MCQ Questions for Class 8 Maths Squares And Square Roots Quiz 3

Pythagorean triplet, whose one member is

$16,$ is

$~16,~63,~65.$
State true or false.

0%
True
0%
False

Explanation

$2k,$

$(k^2 + 1)$ and

$(k^2 - 1)$ form a Pythagorean triplet for any number,

$k > 1$

Let

$2k = 16$
Hence,

$k = 8$

and,

$k^2 + 1 = 8^2 + 1= 64 + 1 = 65$
and,

$k^2 - 1 = 8^2 - 1 = 64 - 1 = 63$

Check the answers:

$63^2 + 16^2 = 3969 + 256 = 4225 = 65^2$

Hence, the triplet is

$16, 63,65$

The least number which is a perfect square and has

$540$ as a factor is

0%
$8,100$
0%
$6,400$
0%
$4,900$
0%
$3,600$

Explanation

The number must be a product of

$540$ and another number.

$540 = 9\times 4\times 15$
Now, the least number to be multiplied with

$540$ is

$15$ to make it a perfect square.
So, the required number is

$540\times 15 = 8100$

The Pythagorean triplet of number 18 is 18,80,82

State true or false.

0%
True
0%
False

Explanation

$2k$ ,

$(k^2 + 1)$ and

$(k^2 - 1)$ form a Pythagorean triplet for any number, k > 1

Let

$2k = 18$
Hence,

$k = 9$

and,

$k^2 + 1 = 9^2 + 1= 81 + 1 = 82$
and,

$k^2 - 1 = 9^2 - 1 = 81 - 1 = 80$

Check the answers:

$18^2 + 80^2 = 324 + 6400 = 6724 = 82^2$

Hence, the triplet is

$18, 80,82$

$16^{2}=256,$ then which of the following are perfect squares ?

0%
$\sqrt{0.00256}$
0%
$\sqrt{0.0256}$
0%
$\sqrt{3.69-1.13}$
0%
$\sqrt{12.8\div 5}$

Explanation

$\sqrt{0.0256}=0.16$

$\sqrt{3.69-1.14}=\sqrt{2.56}=1.6$

$\sqrt{12.8\div 5}=\sqrt{2.56}=1.6$

There are 500 children in a school. For a P.T. drill they have to stand in such a manner that the number of rows is equal to number of columns. How many children would be left out in this arrangement?

0%
16
0%
20
0%
25
0%
32

Explanation

Total number of children in a school =

$500$
For P.T. Drill number of rows = number of columns =

$x$
The number of children who will be left out =

$500 - x^2$ . The square root of

$500$ gives remainder as 16 that means, the square of

$22$ is less than

$500$ by

$16$
To make it a perfect square =

$500-16 = 484$
Therefore, number of children left will be

$16$

$24$

Explanation

The prime factorization of 324 is given as

$324 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3$

$\sqrt{324} = \sqrt{\left(2\times2 \right) \times \left(3\times3 \right) \times \left(3\times 3\right)}= 2 \times 3 \times 3 = 18$

$\therefore \sqrt{324} = 18$ .

Explanation

$\textbf{Step -1: Factors of 12748.}$

$\text{By prime factorization method, we get, }$

$12748 = 2\times 2\times 3187$

$\textbf{Step -2: Finding the left out factor.}$

$3187 \text{ is a prime number and is not grouped with any other number.}$

$\text{Hence 12748 must be multiplied by 3187 so that the product is a perfect square.}$

$\textbf{Hence option A is correct.}$

The square root of

$245$ correct to two places of decimal is

$15.65.$

0%
True
0%
False

Explanation

Let us rewrite

$245$ as the product of its prime factors,

$\begin{aligned}{}245 &= 5 \times 7 \times 7\\ &= 5 \times {7^2}\\\sqrt {245}& = 7\sqrt 5 \\& = 7 \times 2.236\\ &= 15.652\\ &\approx 15.65\end{aligned}$

$(76)^2$ = Unit place of

$6^2$ = 6
(E) Unit place of

$(94)^2$ = Unit place of

$4^2$ = 6
(F) Unit place of

$(42)^2$ = Unit place of

$2^2$ = 4
